Over on 72nd and York. "Small commuter plane." There is fire, and some wreckage. Appears to have hit around the 18th floor. No one is sure why a plane was in that area, it had no business crossing over there apparently.
But, AGAIN, small plane, probably some idiot.

Most people are saying plane. Some are saying a tourist helicopter.
Witnesses saw the thing flying oddly before the smack. One of the reps here lives in the building directly across the street.

In all due respect to Don Francis or anyone else, NY1 is the LAST place I would go if there was breaking news in the city. With all the good sources around, you would go to NY1???

Gotta love it.

CNN had nothing. NY1 is local. It should have coverage. DF is too busy taking time off for the Mets game. Stupid Don Francis.

DonFrancis hasn't hit that site yet. Yahoo is also having trouble with the story. I just hope this won't affect the subways.

Did you also hear an eyewitness account saying, "oontz oontz oontz!" on there?
How about the fact that it was not a helicopter or a plane, and that it was really "Barb's big black ass while she was waiting for me to stick her, that n---r bitch!"
Was all this accompanied by a picture of an old man orgy to help explain the details?

lol @ tj
he news just called it "a non-major impact" and just reported that the FDNY said it is fairly "routine" fire. apparently the aircraft did not penetrate the building greatly, and the structure of the building seems to be intact
*just heard it was a small plane that took off from teterboro

I've been listening to 880 since it happened. Sounds like it is what it is, some dope lost control for whatever reason and smacked the building. I am sure the crew of the plane met their demise, but there is as good a chance as any the apartments they hit were empty that time of day. I wonder if anyone got hit by debris out in the street.
Could have been worse, but if this is the worst that will happen for a while, sign me up for it.

Now they're reporting that the plane was registered to Cory Lidle. I am NOT making this shit up, either.

the plane was just purchased or in the process of being purchased by Yankees Pitcher Corey Lidle. He just recently learned how to fly.

I just heard on Michael Kay that it's rumored that Lidle MAY have been piloting the plane.
How weird...considering we were just talking about his verbal altercation with Mike And The Mad Dog last night.

He was the only person on the plane. They found his passport on the street.
